88%Review Alienware M17x Gaming Notebook | NotebookcheckThe Power of Serenity Alienware and gaming - evidently always a solid partnership. Doubts that this union might be destabilized by the full integration of Alienware into the Dell Company can now, after the first offspring of this alliance, be invalidated. A stylish aluminum giant with two Nvidia Geforce GTX 280M graphic cards and an overclockable QX9300 CPU @ 3.06 GHz ex-factory faces us. Let the game begin!

70%Alienware revisitedBron: Techcentral.myEN→NLOn the whole, the M17X is a great notebook to have if you want something that's purely built for entertainment - whether it's for watching movies or games. It is a pretty beefy machine with the muscles to handle the latest games and it has great sounding speakers to boot. Its powerful processor also allows it to multitask very well and run apps such as Photoshop with aplomb too. However, on the downside, it is very bulky making it more of a desktop replacement than a portable gaming notebook.

60%Alienware M17x 17-inch Desktop Replacement Laptop PCBron: Comp ReviewsEN→NLAlienware certainly has made a desktop replacement system that is capable of high levels of performance with the updated M17x. While the base system has much more in common with a typical 17-inch laptop, Alienware offers a large number of performance enhancements including RAID drive configurations and CrossFire graphics. The downside is that this is an extremely large and very heavy laptop that dwarves most 17-inch laptops, even gaming specific ones.

Alienware's M17x notebook is so good, it's almost out of this world in quality and performanceBron: PC AuthorityEN→NLSuperb performance in one of the sturdiest and best-looking gaming laptops we’ve seen – the Alienware M17x is worth the expense. The M17x is undeniably expensive at $4627, but you're getting a lot for your money, with great performance, brilliant build quality and stunning design. The W90 may be quicker in games but, thanks to the M17x's all-round prowess and lower price, it's now our favourite gaming desktop replacement.

70%Alienware M17x Gaming Laptop ReviewBron: Bit-TechEN→NLThere's no doubting that the Alienware M17x is a striking piece of design and one that we actually came to like. It’s the best Alienware machine we’ve seen for ages in terms of looks and build quality, brilliantly combining the solidity of outdoor latrines with sci-fi set-design.

However, this isn't quite enough to distract from its main problem - the fact that, as a gaming laptop, it's firmly wedged between a rock and a hard place. Its bulk means that it's not suitable for transport and, if you spent two grand on a desktop machine instead, it’d be at least twice as powerful and certainly much more upgradable.

Review: Alienware M17x Earns Editor’s Choice AwardBron: Notebooks.comEN→NLThere’s no question that the Alienware M17x delivers a great gaming experience, but this notebook isn’t for everyone. If you’re concerned about battery life or mobility you should avoid the M17x. It’s too heavy to carry around and it’s difficult for some people to even move from room to room. Do not buy this notebook with any delusions that you’re strong enough to schlep it around campus. Plan on buying a netbook or lightweight notebook to use outside of your home in addition to your M17x.

Alienware M17x Nebula Red Special Edition ReviewBron: notebookforums.comEN→NLOver all I am very pleased with this laptop, It looks sleek, and performs like a desktop. The weight is going to be fun with all my travels, but thats a price I am ready to pay to have a Sweet gaming laptop. Price was $$$$ but no worse than a nicely configured Precision M6400, but the GPU options put this laptop ahead of anything else. upgrades to a QX9300 will be the next item on my list to do. When the 4 GB DIMMS drop to a more reasonable price, a 8 GB Config could be in the works.

Alienware M17x ReviewBron: notebookforums.comEN→NLIntroducing the Alienware M17x! Not to be confused with the Alienware Area-51 m17x. Yes Alienware dropped the "Area-51" off the official title of the notebook and changed the "M" from lowercase to uppercase for reasons we don't really know. Maybe they just wanted an easier way to determine the difference between the two notebooks; because believe me, a lot has changed between the two versions, hardware and aesthetics included. So what are the changes? And is this the correct direction for Alienware to go in?

Alienware - M17x reviewBron: IT ReviewsEN→NLNotebook manufacturers will often promote their high-end models as being capable of playing the latest 3D games, but as soon as you whack up the detail and resolution settings they usually buckle under the pressure. The M17x from Alienware, however, is totally justified in calling itself a gaming notebook. In fact, as you'll soon find out, it's powerful enough to make most desktop PCs look utterly worthless. It's expensive, bulky and just a little bit noisy, but if you're after a gaming laptop and money is no object, you won't get much faster than the Alienware M17x. Those with less change in their pockets can scale down some of the components to make it more affordable.

Alienware M17xBron: Notebookreview.comEN→NLThe M17x is without a doubt a superb gaming notebook, leading the desktop replacement market in build quality and design. The M17x has an effective cooling system that kept it cool during our testing, and we liked the AlienFX lighting system and different case color options. The switchable graphics are handy and equates to good battery life (2:15). Our biggest issue with this machine is the subpar screen, which is out of place on a machine of this caliber. Other than the screen we found it difficult to fault the M17x and give it our recommendation.

Alienware M17x gaming notebookBron: Geek.comEN→NLEven so, the question isn’t if the M17x is a solid laptop, but rather is the M17x more than you need. Starting at $1800 and easily getting over $2500 the M17x is a serious investment, and one that comes along when many sub-$1800 systems can play today’s games extremely well. Maybe you won’t be able to max out the settings or play fullscreen in two years, but you can spend significantly less and game very well. If have decided that you want the best possible gaming experience and future-proof hardware, this brings us to a final concern–the most exceptional aspect of the M17x comes in the form of those GTX 280M video cards in SLI.

Alienware has provided the ultimate gaming laptop - if money's no object. Alienware is renowned for its eyecatching, high-powered gaming computers, but there has been little change in its laptops designs since its acquisition by Dell in 2006. Although this is an expensive machine, its power and feature-packed specification make it by far the best gaming laptop you can buy. Alienware had a lot to prove with the M17x and has truly set a new standard in the gaming laptop market.

90%Alienware M17x ReviewBron: Digital TrendsEN→NLIf we had our druthers, this would be the notebook residing on our desk. It can handle any graphics intensive app and eat up any game you throw at it. Indeed, this is the first notebook we’ve tested that truly made us think monster desktops might really be an endangered species.

Of course, you’ll need to be able to swallow the M17x’s price, which sits around $5,600 if you tick off the checkboxes beside all of the hardware mentioned in this review (including the solid state storage option). If you plan to place an order, we’ve little doubt you’ll be satisfied. You’d just best hope your family didn’t have their hearts set on next summer’s Caribbean cruise.

85%Alienware M17xBron: CNetEN→NLThe Alienware M17x configuration we tested is undeniably expensive, and a clear case of overkill for all but the most enthusiastic and wealthy of gamers. Given the calibre of components used throughout, however, we can't criticise it in terms of value for money. It's a killer gaming laptop. Opt for a slightly slower processor and scale back some of the other components, and you can get the price down to a more realistic level.

83%Alienware M17xBron: PC ProEN→NLThe last Alienware machine to make an appearance at PC Pro, the £2,127 M17, wasn't good enough to win an award. Back then, the Asus W90 was faster, better-looking and cheaper. Alienware, however, has struck back. Its new M17x makes a fantastic first impression. The aluminium exterior, dramatically angled front edge and mesh-covered speaker grilles make the M17x look like a futuristic Blu-ray player rather than a laptop.

80%Alienware M17x reviewBron: PC AdvisorEN→NLYou can put a price on laptop power: the Alienware M17x desktop-replacement gaming laptop costs from £1,699 inc VAT. So to the £1,699 (and the rest) question: should you buy this sort of muscle machine? Y'know, these days it may seem ridiculous to drop so many ducats on a laptop that you can upgrade only so far - but some live in ivory towers and demand the best. Like this notebook. If you have to own the best, get the Alienware M17x - but it is a lot of money. Enkel testrapport, online beschikbaar, Gemiddeld, Datum: 31-07-2009Beoordeling:Totale score: 80%

So now comes the time in our review where we reveal the shocker. The thing where most people seem to balk at. The price. As configured our system ran $2599 plus taxes and shipping. It’s definitely one of the most expensive 17” laptops out there. It isn't hard though to find a few discounts and promotions to knock a few hundred dollars off the price.

Alienware's new version of the M17x makes some welcome design tweaks and offers the best laptop gaming hardware you can get. Just be warned: it ain't cheap.

Give them the fastest processor and most powerful 3D graphics card and let them get on with the show. While most gaming laptop manufacturers would agree (they would buy the bulkiest bare-bone chassis from a Taiwanese factory and customize it with their own parts), Alienware is the one company that goes against the grain.
